Hi, I'm looking for advice on the best NAS for me. Please see the bullet points below for how I hope to use it:
-Store personal/family files, documents, music, etc.
-Store and share photos/videos (Like Google Photos)
-Heavy use of Plex in 4k - I'm considering buying a Plex Pass so I can watch Plex content on my devices in the future
Just hoping for something low maintenance and powerful enough for the next 5-10 years. I think I'd only need 2-bays, and I would buy 2 X 8-12 TB drives, storing everything on the 1st and just using the 2nd for backup (Redundancy).
After reading some of the articles on your site, I think the DS224+ or DS723+ will work best for me, but I also don't want to break the bank if I don't need the +series.
Any advice would be very appreciated, thanks!
Mike
